Once a phone is registered with Two-Factor Authentication, attempts to access University systems that utilize this technology require a user to confirm their identity by using the Duo application on your registered smartphone, via a text message, or by answering a phone call to your registered phone number.

How to Register
1. Go to trueyou.nebraska.edu and click Login to sign into your TrueYou
2. Select Enroll in Two-Factor
3. Follow the guide to set up your Two-Factor Authentication

Why is this being done?

Cyberattacks targeting our faculty, staff, and students are an ongoing threat and we've had a significant number of victims within our university community.

In 2019, 81% of cyberattacks were executed by taking advantage of weak or stolen passwords.

Two-Factor Authentication is the best way to mitigate attacks on weak or stolen passwords.

I’ve registered! Now what?

Try to log into a University system, like Canvas. Type in your username and password and click Log In. An authentication screen will appear to provide more options.

If you don’t receive an authentication notification, check the notification settings on your phone or restart the DUO Mobile app on your smartphone.
